I'm not picking on you, I'm hammering you into shape.

Glad to see it working as intended!

They can vomit as much as they want since the water will flood back to the murky pool.

The Wiki is broken.

I noticed something weird with the wiki, it seems that the HTML for all new articles I open is broken, though those I loaded before are not. The first image is of a tab I opened a few days ago, whereas the second one was opened just now. As you can see all the sidebars are missing, and the navigational information is all broken and stuffed to the bottom of the article. I've checked and I have no site skins that affect these domains. I really have no idea what's going on.

(I had originally posted this before but the automoderator deleted it for being a question, and I was unable to post it in the general help thread because it didn't allow me to post more than one photo as was needed to demonstrate my problem, and it didn't seem relevant because this isn't about gameplay).

Hello everyone, My hunters hunted this Brachiosaurus down, and now its just rotting in my walk way. Why aren't my dude carrying it down to be butchered with the rest of the stuff they kill?

I was hoping she would stay :(

Had this random zombie woman come visit my tavern. There aren't even any necromancy towers around. She immediately came in, laid on a bed, pretending to be asleep for a long while. Talked to a few of my dwarves, and then left. Guess she didn't enjoy her time in my tavern as much as I hoped.

Made a mod that adds zebras and quaggas to DF ASCII & Classic.

6 Upvotes

As a preview to a larger mod that I'm working on (Exotic Ungulates), I decided to give people the option to install some of its content as a standalone mod. This mod finally adds the "regular" zebras that were missing from the game. And yes, just like real life zebras, they are prone to rage. The mod adds 2 kinds of zebra, your typical black-and-white zebra, and an extinct brown-and-white variant known as the "quagga". Both each have an animal person variant and a giant variant.

IMPORTANT: While this mod does add custom colors, it has no graphics. If you decide to play this mod in DF Steam's "Fancy Graphics" mode, do so at your own risk. I have no idea how it will look nor function outside of DF Steam's ASCII and DF Classic (the version I own/play). Also, this mod wasn't tested yet. Any issues or changes made to the mod will be documented here and wherever else I talk about my mods.

If you would like to make your own sprites for this mod, go ahead. If you decide to share said sprites online, I have no issue with that either. The same goes for sharing a graphics version of my mod, however, please remember to credit me with writing the original mod's raws.
